After reading No-one Ever Has Sex on a Tuesday I immediately picked up this book. It kicks off right where the previous book left off with baby Millie just being born.

If you thought that the first book was funny wait until you read this one. It had me in tears of laughter. I absolutely love Ben and Braindead's relationship. The conversations that they have in this book will have you laughing so loud. The coffee shop scene has to be my favourite part of the book.

With Katy back at work, Ben had opted to be a stay at home dad. He thinks it will be a doddle. He gets to sit at home and watch day time TV with his little girl who is nothing but happy around him. By the end of the first day Ben realises that this is anything but easy.

The story is again very easy to relate to. I don't have any children myself but I know friends that do and I have a few nephews and a niece so the story line wasn't alien to me. I raced through this one in a day. I literally couldn't put it down. I just kept turning and turning and then all of a sudden I couldn't believe I was at the end. I gave myself a bathroom break and picked up my ARC copy of No-one Ever has Sex on Christmas Day.

I enjoyed the first book in this series (no-one has sex on a Tuesday) however I didn't enjoy this book. I'm not sure what statement the writer was seeking to make about working parents and stay at home parents - and parenting in general. There was no real drama for the characters other than a serial inability to communicate with each other. Disappointing

This is the sequel to the book ‘No One Ever Has Sex on a Tuesday,’ and because I thoroughly enjoyed reading that book, I had to read this one! I loved the first book a lot that it made my top ten favourite books from 2014. However, I didn’t enjoy this book as much until much nearer towards the middle and end. The first book had more of a build up to it’s conclusion, whereas this one was more about what just happens after. Not to say I didn’t enjoy the book overall, I’m glad I’ve read it so I know what happens to the four main characters and the events that have led them to where they’ve got to now. Since Katy and Matthew’s one night stand from the first book, they’ve been moving on with their lives with their respective partners and focusing on their new joys in life. Katy and Ben are struggling to keep a roof over their heads whilst Katy is on maternity leave and as she is the main earner in their partnership, Ben suggests a swap. Ben decides to leave his job as a PE teacher so Katy can return to work, while Ben takes care of their baby daughter Millie, so Katy can earn the money for their family. However, Ben figures out that looking after a baby is hard work and turns to someone Katy and Ben swore to never have contact with again. All the lies and deceit come back to haunt these four main characters. When they thought they were all moving on with their lives, they are actually bringing back the past to their present.

Life after a baby is never the same again for all of us and Ben and Katy are struggling. Katy goes back to work and Ben takes over but it's chaos. Did he listen to any of her instructions or suggestions, unfortunately not. Then into his new life with all sorts of ideas, come some of the women from the ante-natal class. If you read Tuesday you will remember Alison and Charlene and the complications that they are likely to bring. I chuckled though this book from the start. It has a great pace and clever unexpected sutuations leading eventually to a very satisfying conclusion. Easily read as a novel on its own but really appreciated if you have read Tuesday as its like meeting old friends again. Another Tracy Bloom novel to lift the spirits and enjoy.

I loved this book-just chanced upon it & Lo & behold it's a little gem! It had me laughing out loud at so many times that will seem so real to 1st time parents. Ben & Katy's relationship is just so real everyone will identify with them. Please give it a go-u won't be disappointed!

I really enjoyed this book, it was great to find out what happened to Katy and Ben after little Millie came along. I would recommend it to everyone but you will need to read No-one ever has sex on a Tuesday first to get to know Katy, Ben and their friends x

This book continues the story of Katy, Ben and Matthew who we first met in 'No-one Ever Has Sex on a Tuesday' following the birth of the baby. It was a worthy sequel full of the warmth, humour and believability of the characters as they move from one dilemma to another. Great escapist read and not just for chick lit lovers.
